    How to get Rome from the “Leonardo Da Vinci” Fiumicino Airport The main airport Leonardo da Vinci (Fiumicino) is located about 26 km from the city centre. The centre of city is easily reached: FROM AND TO FIUMICINO AIRPORT BY TRAIN At the airport’s railway station the Shuttle-Train Leonardo Express direct service (without calling at other stations) takes just 31 minutes to get to Termini Station (intersecting with the Metro Lines A & B) and leaves every half hour from 6.36 a.m. to 11.36 p.m. FROM AND TO FIUMICINO BY TAXI Taxis licensed by Rome City Council are white and have a sign bearing the word “TAXI” on their roofs and by the identifying licence number on the doors, on the back and inside the car. The symbol of the Rome City Council is clearly visible on the front doors and the license inside the back left. Other vehicles waiting on exiting the airport may well be driven by unauthorized persons and the fare could therefore be a great deal higher. Taxis for Rome are found at the exits of both the domestic and international arrival terminals. Fares: • to and from Fiumicino Airport – Ostiense Railway Station €45 • to and from Fiumicino Airport – The Aurelian Wall €48 • to and from Fiumicino Airport – Tiburtina Railway Station €55 A maximum fare of €70 has moreover been set for journeys starting from inside the Rome Ring Road (Grande Raccordo Anulare) and heading to Fiumicino airport in the event that the taxi metre should display a higher sum.

    262 Gran Torino: Social and Security Implications of the XX Winter Olympic Games Chiara Fonio Giovanni Pisapia 263 This paper examines issues relating to the security of the XX Winter Olympic Games, which took place in Turin, Italy, from the 10 th to the 26 th of February 2006. In doing so it explores three crucial aspects of those Games, first, the general social context, second forms of resistance directed against the Winter Games and third the Integrated Security System (ISS) which was developed for and implemented at the sporting venues. This included installing a number of surveillance technologies that sought to address distinctive security concerns. Our aim is to emphasize not only the trend towards the securitization of mega-events at a national and international level, but to also understand some of the broader social implications of the Olympics. In the process, our work also contributes to the literature on the XX Winter Games which to date has tended to be quite thin and fragmented (Bondonio and Campaniello 2006a; Bertone and Degiorgis 2006). We have chosen to emphasize these factors because of some of the unique peculiarities of the XX Winter Olympics. One of the most important of these concerns the smaller scale of the Turin Games, which translated into a series of security measures that contrast with the typical overzealous security planning for mega events. So, this smaller scale meant that the security dynamics, surveillance practices and legacies tended to be more limited than the types of intensive security systems implemented in Athens (Samatas 2008) or Beijing (Boyle and Haggerty 2009: 266).

    GLOBAL METRO PROJECTS REPORT 2012 Metropolitan railways (metros) are high capacity electric transport systems that operate on dedicated routes, and can thereby achieve high service speed and frequency. Over the last few years, metros (also known as subway, underground or tube) have evolved as an efficient and effective urban mobility solution in addressing the growing concerns of urbanisation and climate change. This is supported by the fact that despite high capital requirements the sector witnessed a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7 per cent between 2005 and 2010. In high density urban areas, metros form the backbone of integrated public transport systems and offer proven economic, social and environmental benefits. Given the huge investment requirement and long life span, metro systems have always been a driving force for technological and financial innovations. Government and metro operators are constantly seeking solutions to improve reliability and customer service, lower fuel and maintenance costs, as well as increase efficiency and safety levels in operations. The Global Metro Projects Report provides updated information on the world's top 101 metro projects that present significant capital investment opportunities. These projects have a total existing network length of about 8,900 km and a proposed length of over 8,000 km. The report covers 51 countries representing about 80 per cent of the world’s gross domestic product. It presents the key information required to assess investment opportunities in the development of new lines, extension and upgrade of existing lines, rolling stock procurement and refurbishment, power and communication systems upgrades, fare collection, as well as station construction and refurbishment.
